[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
Update: Both internal and external SDCARD can be mounted now!!
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
Neo the v5 has flickering if u were talking about v6 my bad.

If you lock screen it does the TV animation and shows a green tinted screen for a second I have no problems with it but others seem to
[Vibrant Android Development] Specialist88:
Does this mean V6 is on its way? Loving the ROM and I find it to be stable and smooth. Thanks Neo for all your work on getting ICS to Vibrant owners! :-)
[Vibrant Android Development] ngiordano:
He was confirming that there is no longer any flicker.
[Vibrant Android Development] liquidreign:
Anyone have a fix for this I use my phone for working and would like to pause and skip songs without having yo pull it out of my pocket. Thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] L1LK1LLERZ:
Thanks man!!!!!! Can't wait!! :)
[Vibrant Android Development] bgtvfr:
I would think so. I thought vibrant was gonna fall under low activity devices... Thank to Neo he brought vibrant from its grave
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
and ngiordano for his kernel.
[Vibrant Android Development] L1LK1LLERZ:
Totally agree this man, I was gonna sell this vibrant and was gonna buy a better phone. But, not anymore! Loving my vibrant again and all because of NEO and NELSON! Love you guys, no homo lol.
[Vibrant Android Development] chadhoard:
Will we have to manually modify the data data folder on the new release?
[Vibrant Android Development] bush2088:
Just flashed ICS.....AND IT ROCKS!!!

Thank you Neo, for keeping up the hard work and providing us with ICS for our Vibrants. When so many other devs have given up on us and moved on to the next big thing, it is wonderful to see guys like you and eugene and a few others who are hangin in there, like a hair in a biscuit, to provide the latest and greatest for all of us die hard Vibrant owners.

+1 in the forums, but +1,000,000 in respect and admiration from me!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] Richcar:
Thank Neo to have all of those working on a Beta rom, wow you broth this to perfection .grate job and special thank to ngiordano glad to have u around. Nuff respect buddy great kernel.
[Vibrant Android Development] amblingaardvark:
Thank you!!!

I just wanted to say a big THANK YOU to neobuddy and ngiordano, you both do amazing work! This is the first ROM I've used by neobuddy, and I have no complaints at all, he is an awesome dev and he has done a lot of really great work for us all. As far as Ngiordano, I know from experience he is awesome, he brought my crappy old CLIQ back from the dead for a few months. I couldn't be more happy with the work you two have done, and anyone who whines/complains/asks for eta's on the ROM is just plain dumb!

Thanks a bunch guys!!
[Vibrant Android Development] nedlog:
Totally agree, awesome man!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] jalenthejiv:
does this come with theme manager and backup
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
Nope. This is not CM7 or MIUI.

And read first 3-4 lines of OP.
[Vibrant Android Development] bush2088:
is it ok to flash gb bootloaders after i have flashed your rom neo??

nevermind, i took the leap!! lol
[Vibrant Android Development] TFordham:
Direct from Neo, so all y'all shut yer yappers and show a little patience....and you know who I'm referring to.
[Vibrant Android Development] mksin11:
Just a quick thing, can you please make an option to put a song as your ringtone? When I was using this I was not able to do so....thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] gemstocks:
Thanks Neo for fixing wifi hotspot and mount external SD. I couldn't wait to download it. If you could put root explorer on the ROM to change data\data, would be even sweet :-)
[Vibrant Android Development] evoevo:
Edit.. Sorry
[Vibrant Android Development] gemstocks:
To show your appreciation for Neo's hard work and job well done for this wonderful ROM, I suggest you make a small donation, even a few dollars would make a smile. The donation link is on the first page.

Thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] Exel:
He fixed it, but he hasn't released it yet. Will be working in version 6.

Root Explorer is a paid app, he could get in trouble for adding it.
[Vibrant Android Development] scaldaferri:
YES!!!! That´s the best... :D:D:D:D

looking forward to this version. Eagerly, too eagerly ..

Regards

Andre
[Vibrant Android Development] evoevo:
Thank you so much.
[Vibrant Android Development] TFordham:
Oddly enough, Thor included it with his ICS for the Acer Iconia A500 tablet. Course, he's not one to always follow the rules.
[Vibrant Android Development] Exel:
Ahah, well, I guess at the end of the day, it's the developer's choice, it's against xda rules, and it sure isn't nice to the app dev, seems like stealing in a way.. but if devs want to include it, what can we do? :p
[Vibrant Android Development] TFordham:
That's the thing. He's so rogue that he created his own site. I think XDA is tired of his antics. He is truly one of the best devs, but sort of a trouble maker.
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
SERIOUSLY? Why do you expect neo to add pirated apps to his rom?

Is it THAT hard to use google and go find it yourself?

If neo gets caught this rom gets taken down, and he gets banned for warez.

If you do it for YOUR phone, you can live happily ever after and so can the rest of us using this ROM.

I for one bought the actual app, because of how useful its been for me. I did pirate it for a week or two to test it out though, then i loved it and i bought it. I won Titanium Backup pro in a contest :D

Again, just google it, its not that hard.
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
Stop this topic please.

I had included CPU Master Pro in first versions. But they are replaced with free version now.

Let's not talk about this.
[Vibrant Android Development] Lakers3408:
Agree... The best answer to a stupid question/request is to simply ignore it
[Vibrant Android Development] bush2088:
@ gemstocks, i use es file explorer, its free and works just as well as root explorer, imo.
[Vibrant Android Development] nivek_k2020:
Is it better to odin to stock and flash v6 (when released) or flash over v5?

[Vibrant Android Development] bush2088:
just had to reflash, and i notice now that some apps are missing. flashed to stock and reflashed the same file as i did initally, but the apps like antutu and a few others are missing. any ideas why??

never mind, just reflashed again and they showed back up, lol.
[Vibrant Android Development] KWKSLVR:
Maybe not necessarily Odin back to stock (unless you want to). But I've found that when playing around with Beta stuff, it never hurts to wipe/delete data and format system in CWM before flashing the newest incarnation. Yeah, it can be a pain to set stuff back up, but it gives you a fair chance to evaluate the ROM. I'm also not really a fan of restoring apps/data from TB when moving from ROM to ROM (certainly not from device to device). I think a lot of times people that are complaining about lag and this or that being buggy, it's due to app/data restoration from Titanium (or even Google for that matter).

I know CM7 gave me FITS of FC's after a few days, consistently, when restoring just apps. Granted, it was probably a specific app or two, but I never could figure out which ones.
[Vibrant Android Development] 9xnine:
I've been using v5 since the second it came out and just got a random reboot for the first time this morning. I wouldn't worry about it too much unless it's happening frequently.
[Vibrant Android Development] ameedi600:
Did anyone try tango, I tried video calling and it wouldnt show the anything but a black screen
[Vibrant Android Development] ironlood:
Well this is a tad bit interesting ... just started having the low memory issue and it just crippled my phone to the point of unusable

I did the datadata fix (or Atleast I think I did it right I put the folder change in data/data changing the data folder to data1 and adding a data folder, rebooting and then wiping data1)

It worked I started getting all my text messages and all the FCs stopped ... now the problem is that my home button has stopped functioning
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
I am tired of answering questions for people, so i suggest you do a small search on this thread to get about 20 replies answering how to fix that.
[Vibrant Android Development] yuseff14:
Chainfire 3D

will it be possible to get chainfire 3d night mode to work on the ROM.

I tried it and night mode is a no go!!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] yalkowni:
This ie all time favorite Rom ..... my favorite thing is the reverse Bluetooth tethering .... it worked perfectly onmy transformer
[Vibrant Android Development] bobshute:
There's a couple issues that I haven't found a fix/solution for. Any ideas guys and gals?
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
Data issue is fixed for v6. This can only be confirmed once compiled, uploaded and then tested by you guys. Let's see.....
[Vibrant Android Development] L1LK1LLERZ:
Thanks man!!! You the best bro!
[Vibrant Android Development] jay661972:
Been running V5 since it came out, now with V6 cant wait to test it. Thanks Neo
[Vibrant Android Development] Jasonhunterx:
Wait is V6 new beta version or just for fixes?
[Vibrant Android Development] SaintJimmy76:
How do you suggest someone on the xda app to search for the fix? Ya, the topic has been covered but is whining about people not searching the thread when they have no search capabilities the answer? Either ignore the question or give them the page # because "do a search" posts are JUST as annoying as repeated questions to resolved answers.

Anywho...I must echo the praise for neo! The past few weeks I was certain that the Vibrant was dead & was about to try for an upgrade. Then out of nowhere comes the best ROM I've ever used. I just might live out my tmo contract (6 more months).

I hope that we'll get to see a chocolate ice cream sandwich real soon. What I seen of the dark mms looks fantastic.
[Vibrant Android Development] lee714:
Thanks for keeping me with an android phone, if ics was a fail, I would of been on an iphone 4 right now :D Thanks Neobuddy
[Vibrant Android Development] shownuff:
Take your time buddy. All im doing today is watching the fight.
[Vibrant Android Development] M5devil:
When we upgrade to v6, is there a backup restore feature available for quick access to your apps and data similar to what is available on MIUI?
[Vibrant Android Development] eminembdg:
Neo, what about the mute/unmute issue for callers to hear us and is init.d back?

Sent from my ICS'd Vibrant!
[Vibrant Android Development] ngiordano:
It should be fixed in v6. I didn't get any FC's using settings in camera using the new build.
[Vibrant Android Development] lvazn93:
Cannot wait for v6! No rush man, just excited!
[Vibrant Android Development] scaldaferri:
;) Come on guys. We are so close of V6 so let´s stop with this flow of questions and let neo "works". I´m absolutelly sure that everything changed will be on a changelog. :) :rolleyes:
[Vibrant Android Development] ironlood:
Reread the post last sentence explains my problem and I'm not begging for your help and support to nurture me and give me a shoulder to cry on cause my phone is not working right

IM PUTTING THE ISSUE OUT THERE TO MAKE OTHER'S AWARE

yep twenty replies NOT related to my issue ... can't locate a hone button issue

I agree with you if the question bothers you then don't answer it its simple to overlook a question that irritates you with out being a douch

And 2nd to the new life in my vibrant
[Vibrant Android Development] ngiordano:
I'm sorry I tried restoring and it did FC. Oh well. It's all a work in progress.

Believe me, when the big issues are solved, it will be on the smaller things. There are a ton of trial and errors.
[Vibrant Android Development] bobshute:
I was thinking, as some of us are moving our app data to /data from /datadata, of a tweak to the internal SDCard to speed it up. I used this on my Nook Color when I was running CM7 from the external Sd. Our Sd Card read cache is set rather small @ 128kb. If you increase the size it may read faster, thus getting our app data faster. Here's the original thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1010807

Using a market app, SD-Booster you can change the cache size, and using SD Tools you can check the results.

This may be irrelevant in v6 depending on how nelson and neo fixed the /datadata issue.

Here are my results @ 128kb (left) and 2048kb (right)
[Vibrant Android Development] Louis53:
I'm not sure if this is a glitch or if this is just part of stock Android 4.0, but you can pull the notification bar down while on the lock screen. Its not a big deal, but its something to be aware of.

I apologize if this has already been addressed. Just thought I'd say something :P
[Vibrant Android Development] TFordham:
That is part of ICS.
[Vibrant Android Development] L1LK1LLERZ:
Yeah, it's just a stock ICS thing.
[Vibrant Android Development] bgtvfr:
good question?
[Vibrant Android Development] jpeckover:
just thought I'd share my recent benchmark...
[Vibrant Android Development] Oxirane:
I'm really enjoying this rom, and am very much looking forward to v6. Thanks for all your awesome work, Neo. I really didn't expect ICS to ever be this functional on the vibrant ^^,
[Vibrant Android Development] ameedi600:
That feature doesn't work if you put a pattern lock screen
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
...well yeah because if you had a pattern lock and could use the status bar you could get into the phone without the lock... which would be useless.
[Vibrant Android Development] bobshute:
Lol. I just noticed SetCPU has been Ice Cream Sandwich themed.
[Vibrant Android Development] VeryCoolAlan:
Hi

You posted that TV out is available via app

Could this app be posted and would it work on cm7?
[Vibrant Android Development] shrty4luv:
I notice that there are alot of people asking about the wifi tethering and wifi hotspot,i know some may think it's helpful cause they might have unlimited data...WELL,Tmobile doesn't really have unlitimited data...they just have you to think so,which there is a limit...2gb or 5gb,which ever one you have on your data....once you reach that peak,they throttle your data(slow it down)...i just got a mobile wifi 4g and change my data to 200 mb.The thing about that is after your reach 200 you are charge .10 per mb up to 25.00 and after that then they throttle you.But don't ask me how but the 200mb is listed under 4g...HOPE THIS IS HELPFUL TO SOME....
[Vibrant Android Development] jpeckover:
There are apps out there that let you not be throttled resets something so that you can still download..
[Vibrant Android Development] ironlood:
They actually added the fees to the 200mb plan due to the fact that people who had no issue with data throttling would just continue to use there data.
[Vibrant Android Development] tpierce89:
Heres my battery life for an average day on V5. Probably 50 texts 5 phone calls and random browsing and facebook a few times per hour.
[Vibrant Android Development] derride8:
Can you provide the names of those app.?
[Vibrant Android Development] jpeckover:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1164831

Also google search is your friend... people don't ALWAYS need to provide things for you.. Just saying..
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
Ok, datadata confirmed working now on v6. :D
[Vibrant Android Development] jpeckover:
Sweet!! :) I did the /data/data fix route for V5 and don't get the full issue so I'm pretty happy about that.. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] TFordham:
Yes, yes, yes!
[Vibrant Android Development] gemstocks:
Great Neo. Does it mean we don't need to rename \data\data after installed the new ROM?
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
Data related issues solved.

You won't need to rename it. :)

Now trying to implement init.d support. (I need this for further optimizing. Let's see... :rolleyes:)
[Vibrant Android Development] Exel:
That's what I'm waiting for, thanks neo. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] shrty4luv:
just read that thread and in the update he/she states that they still got throttle...
[Vibrant Android Development] bdubs4200:
That app is outdated... its a hit or miss some say it worked some say it did nothing (it did nothing for me months ago) and also that's irrelevant to this topic. Great work Neo and I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say THANK YOU and much anticipating the new release :)
[Vibrant Android Development] ironlood:
Overall this is a great rom the only issue was the data data for me and now to see that being fixed this rom is gonna be unstoppable

keep up the awesome work
[Vibrant Android Development] yahase:
I love you guys so much. Absolutely awesome from!!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] Exel:
I love you, too. <3 what's your number? (;

I'm just kidding.. I'm waiting for neo to add init.d support to the kernel, then I'm flashing this again. :D
[Vibrant Android Development] abszer0:
I'm biting my nails. :D
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
Phewwww...... init.d finally supported after 12 hours of research along with ngiordano....

Also music on external sd will appear in music list! (confirmed)

external_sd now successfully shows in any explorer. (confirmed)

both sd card USB mounting works!
[Vibrant Android Development] Exel:
Epic win. ;D

Will you be adding your own tweaks now that the kernel supports init.d?
[Vibrant Android Development] Duntkno:
youve made the vibrant worth having. Take your time.
[Vibrant Android Development] lvazn93:
Woot!!!!! The vibrant will take over <3
[Vibrant Android Development] L1LK1LLERZ:
Yay! Thanks again man, just take your time and make this completely awesome! :)
[Vibrant Android Development] TR88:
TV-Out App? Interesting...

I've missed this feature a lot since coming to CM7.
[Vibrant Android Development] ameedi600:
Just out of curiosity, what is data data anyway?
[Vibrant Android Development] bush2088:
if this rom turns out to be as epic as it looks, i might just keep my vibrant, and come march, just buy my wife something else!!!!!:D
[Vibrant Android Development] Stevethegreat:
If true finally I'll be able to use a non-Samsung rom. A breath of fresh air indeed...
[Vibrant Android Development] shrty4luv:
how is this irrelevant? ppl was asking about the wifi tethering and wifi hotspot,since both uses data...they should be aware of what to expect,can we just enjoy what NEO and NELSON gave to our vibrants.Why not we all agree that we start helping one another and stop the bashing or whatever...A person ask a question that already been asnwer....just don't reply....and we do have THANKS BUTTONS,lets start using them...
[Vibrant Android Development] o0stryxs0o:
I'm so amped for the existence of this Rom. A few issues here and there with me, but I was a few days out of getting rid of this Vibrant....I don't have a contract with Tmo, but I can't really afford a SGSII just yet. I was gonna use some Christmas money I had coming. This has literally saved this phone ...I'm good for at least 6 months off of this Rom. Its amazing Neo, you did good! Excited about V6 because it sounds like it fixes everything I've had go wrong. Which has been just the data issue and music from external.
[Vibrant Android Development] AuraspeeD:
So what may/will be required if you've done the Data Partition Fix and removed /datadata and moved the files to /data/data when either flashing to the new V6 or any other ROM for that matter?

Thanks for all the hard work!
[Vibrant Android Development] PigProtist:
With the newly added support of init.d, will battery life be improved? Not by init.d itself, obviously, but possible tweaks and scripts?
[Vibrant Android Development] bush2088:
AMEN BROTHER,(or sister)!!! :D
[Vibrant Android Development] Richcar:
Neo are you using the latest release Beta 2.5.1 for v6 ?
[Vibrant Android Development] scaldaferri:
Take a look here :D

Regards

Andre
[Vibrant Android Development] N00B_IN_N33D:
Oh man, I hope video recording is fixed soon. That is the only thing holding me back from using this rom...
[Vibrant Android Development] Vibrant03:
Oops wrong quote.. *lol

Yah battery life is horrible for me too.. I noticed it gets slow after a while, the widgets reload when pressing the home button.. Probably because I have a lot of widgets on my homescreen..

Still a great rom thou.
[Vibrant Android Development] ameedi600:
Thank you and I have been wondering why it said that I have low storage lol. Thank you neo and I can't wait for the next release,mainly because I want TV out. Just to let everyone know, I also have the flicker issue but if you were to put a pattern lock, then the flicker issue is gone. I've noticed this on mine
[Vibrant Android Development] simpsons345:
there seem to be a problem with calling, it seem that sometimes people cant hear me and id have to hang up and call them back
[Vibrant Android Development] TFordham:
Well known problem.
[Vibrant Android Development] RaymondPJR:
Simply Honey JVR, it works fine. Video quality isn't that nice since we lack the hdmi connection.
[Vibrant Android Development] RaymondPJR:
I think everyone considers this a minor concern right now, but I feel you. I don't like any of the included ringtones from Samsung. After saying that the only way to ever do it other than using a third party app was to play the song, hit menu, choose 'save as phone ringtone'. If that no longer works in ICS I'd just find an app to do it.
[Vibrant Android Development] Alex530:
The only thing wrong with this is the battery life. That's it.
[Vibrant Android Development] bush2088:
i dont have any problem at all with battery life, as a matter of fact i have been waiting about a hour for it to run down the last 3% so i could plug it in and use my battery app.

ok thats strange, my phone died, i plugged it in and it restarted, so i powered off and it still restarted......wtf????

just un plugged my phone, turned it off, then plugged it back in and it came on. anyone else have this issue??
[Vibrant Android Development] xxProphecyxx:
That is a known issue.
[Vibrant Android Development] bush2088:
ohh ok thanks a bunch;)

still though, battery life is awesome for me
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
Testing some scripts now.

Surprisingly, quadrant score fell considerably by one of the scripts!

And some issues need to be solved which arised due to "external_sd"
[Vibrant Android Development] Exel:
I was reading in the i9000 forums that some scripts make things worse, so I guess it'd be a trial and error thing, eh?
[Vibrant Android Development] o0stryxs0o:
As far as battery life I got 14 hrs and running at 33%. Been on my phone all day and played some music. One thing I will suggest is when you drain your battery, you may want to put it in download mode til it shuts itself off. Then charge it to 100. Shut it down clear battery stats, boot up, let it drain with NO BUMP CHARGING! Then fill it once more. This is early on as it settles it gets better.
[Vibrant Android Development] samdroid959:
Yeah I have the same problem, tried re-flashing three times to no avail, also searched the OP and the tread and came up with nothing, I was gonna wait til the next version to see if I would have the same issue, I thought I was the only one with this issue.

Edit: just saw the previous comments on this page and saw that it was a known issue, even though I tried searching this thread, sorry for wasting a post.
